Nyesom Wike, Rivers State governor has said he would deal with his party, the People’s Democratic Party (PDP), if the rumour of his impending sack from the party turns out to be true.
According to the governor, that is when the leadership of the opposition party will see his true colour.
Wike has, alongside four governors of the party known as the G5 governors, been insisting on the removal of Iyorchia Ayu as the party’s national chairman.
The G5 governors include Oyo state Seyi Makinde, Samuel Ortom of Benue state, Ifeanyi Ugwuanyi of Enugu, Abia state Okezie Ikpeazu and Wike himself.
The aggrieved governors are demanding the resignation of Ayu as national chairman in the name of fairness and justice before they would support Atiku Abubakar, the PDP presidential candidate.
Wike who spoke in a statement at the weekend, disclosed that he would respond appropriately if he is sacked from the party.
His statement reads in part: “They say they will sack me. I have been looking for the day they will sack me. Then they sack me, I pepper you. You will know that khaki no be leather”.
